And here is the flying motorcycle: Hoverbike V1

Another thing of whew, with parachute please! Apparently, it will be on the market soon ... More efficient silencers would be welcome.

The parachute is useless at 10 m from the ground!

We had already put videos of the same kind (including one of a micro "guillotine helicopter") here: https://www.econologie.com/forums/videos-aer ... 11153.html

For breakdowns at low altitude, one can imagine a pyrotechnic system inspired by the ejection seats operating at zero altitude. Or a giant airbag surrounding the pilot.
Martin jetpack has a simple pyrotechnic parachute. I have the impression that the tests of this machine are radio controlled, a mannequin replacing the pilot.
I find the William X Jet à © surprising. Of old design, it could certainly be further improved with current technology.

Using all of these prototypes furiously resembles a particularly sophisticated mode of suicide.

Ah yes we can always imagine ... but at what price?

A seat of hunter, that must undoubtedly kill 40-50 000€ ...

For the giant airbag, take inspiration from the airbag for a wet motorbike ... but in this case, it must open upon impact with the ground ... therefore completely different air handling road bag ...

We see it in the 'high flight' video, they call it a 'ballistic parachute' ...

And another way of using a particularly energy-efficient means of transport !!!!

I was curious about the technical characteristics, I was not disappointed:
- 2T V4 2 l 200 hp engine!
- transportable weight up to 127 kg
- speed 100 km / h
- consumption 38 liters / h

Aside from a possible interest in "rescue missions" (oh the beautiful humanitarian-type justification for making people cry in thatched cottages ...), this thing must absolutely be prohibited for sale!

It’s true! Same for large motorcycles, Ferraris, Porsches, aerobatic planes, carbon bikes which cost a fortune, etc ... Having fun with unusual machines is a pure scandal, to be prohibited absolutely, and those who seek to improve them, outright banished from our society.

Is that what i said? I don't think so, read it a little better!

I just find it indecent to speak (in the "commercial" video of the lot) of thousands of recreational aviators for something that consumes so much for so little ...


Take your list from the Green and take a good look at what could be comparable ... I don't see (and I even see lots of HS ... )

So good night...

The interest of these individual devices is to remain accessible to the consumer. A hunter's seat has no interest in a machine which must remain as light as possible. The challenge is to find reliable, light and inexpensive solutions.
If the device tumbles, how do you get the pyrotechnic parachute to go in the right direction? Perhaps micro-rockets restoring attitude and reducing the effects of impact on the ground if the parachute does not have time to open.
